Ideas

I've been in a state of stagnance lately with nothing noteworthy to blog about.  Frustrated with the perpetual direction of nowhere that my life seems to be taking me, I had another angered conversation with God, Karma, the Universe or anyone that would listen last night on my way home from work.  The type I've become accustomed to having (and probably "Them" too), where it begins with, "First of all, I am thankful for what I have, but what gives?  Where am I headed and why haven't I gotten any farther?"

Well, one of "Them" answered today.  I got a random call from a dear cousin who gave me some good advice.  She said, "I know that your life isn't where you think it needs to be after all the hard work you've put in, but you really have the freedom right now to do whatever you want."  At first I was wondering where the conversation was about to go, but then she suggested that I should start using this time to work on my creative outlets.  Then she said she thought I should start working on a book.  And that is when I realized one of "Them" was at work here.  It was just earlier this week I had revisited the idea that I have had so many times that I should start writing a book of some kind and then after the heated one-way discussion I had with "Them" last night, I realized one of "Them" was speaking through her.  

Anyway, enough of that weirdo "universe talking to me" mumbo jumbo bullshit.

I will begin brainstorming to see where this takes me, (if anywhere).  I have lots of ideas floating around in my head but we will see what ends up typed out.  I plan to make the following vows though:

1.  This is just for fun and a creative outlet.

2.  I will not let it begin to stress me out.

3.  It may suck ass and be stupid but, refer back to point #1 if it does.

4.  I will not take criticisms too harshly because, once again, point #1.

So, thank you to my sweet cousin for being the human channel and giving me the advice that "Them" wanted me to have.  Thank you to "Them" for using her as your human channel.  And here goes to this project that might take me until I'm 90 to finish but will be fun and allow me to get into the mind of someone else and tell a story from their perspective.  

Cheers to you, me, and "Them,"
